Escape to pictuesque North Cornwall for a family-focussed stay in this charming cottage, situated in an idyllic countryside setting, just a short drive from the surfing hotspot of Bude. The cottage's interior gives off a relaxed barefoot coastal vibe, with a driftwood sculpture on the coffee table, local landscapes adorning the walls, and a rustic dining table surrounded by deliberately mismatched chairs. Its open layout creates a social space where you can happily be preparing dinner in the kitchen, while holding a conversation with someone stretched out on the sofa by the front door. Upstairs, both cosy bedrooms are equipped with skylights that make for a gentle wake-up call each morning. Although you can always close the blackout blinds if you'd like a lie-in. In addition, plenty of built-in storage is handy when it comes to unpacked and settling into your home from home. Elsewhere, the site boasts an array of fantastic shared facilities, including a games room, children's playground and a campfire area. For us, you can't go wrong with a morning caffeine boost form the horse trailer turned cafe as you lead the kids off to feed the farm animals (available seasonally). For off-site escapades, your hosts have teamed... up with the area's most outstanding artisans and adventurers to create a local list that includes everything from places serving sumptuous local produce to those offering exhilarating outdoor experiences.
